docs: ioctl: convert to ReST
Rename the iio documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.
The cdrom.txt and hdio.txt have their own particular syntax.
In order to speedup the conversion, I used a small ancillary
perl script:
my $d;
$d .= $_ while(<>);
$d =~ s/(\nCDROM\S+)\s+(\w[^\n]*)/$1\n\t$2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\nHDIO\S+)\s+(\w[^\n]*)/$1\n\t$2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*usage:)[\s\n]*(\w[^\n]*)/$1:\n\n\t $2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*)(E\w+[\s\n]*\w[^\n]*)/$1- $2/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*)(inputs|outputs|notes):\s*(\w[^\n]*)/$1$2:\n\t\t$3\n/g;
print $d;
It basically add blank lines on a few interesting places. The
script is not perfect: still several things require manual work,
but it saved quite some time doing some obvious stuff.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

+November, 2004
+

+code. It is likely that some corrections will be made over time.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+General:
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
+ and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error. (Some
+ ioctls return non-negative data values.)
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
+ errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
+ address space.
+
+ Individual drivers may return error codes not listed here.
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
+ are defined in <linux/cdrom.h>

+
+
+ Ok, this is where problems start. The current interface for
+ the CDROM_DISC_STATUS ioctl is flawed. It makes the false
+ assumption that CDs are all CDS_DATA_1 or all CDS_AUDIO, etc.
+ Unfortunately, while this is often the case, it is also
+ very common for CDs to have some tracks with data, and some
+ tracks with audio. Just because I feel like it, I declare
+ the following to be the best way to cope. If the CD has
+ ANY data tracks on it, it will be returned as a data CD.
+ If it has any XA tracks, I will return it as that. Now I
+ could simplify this interface by combining these returns with
+ the above, but this more clearly demonstrates the problem
+ with the current interface. Too bad this wasn't designed
+ to use bitmasks... -Erik
+
+ Well, now we have the option CDS_MIXED: a mixed-type CD.
+ User level programmers might feel the ioctl is not very
+ useful.

-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-General:
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
- and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error. (Some
- ioctls return non-negative data values.)
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
- errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
- address space.
-
- Individual drivers may return error codes not listed here.
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
- are defined in <linux/cdrom.h>

-
- error returns: none at present
-
- notes:
- Source code comments state:
-
- Ok, this is where problems start. The current interface for
- the CDROM_DISC_STATUS ioctl is flawed. It makes the false
- assumption that CDs are all CDS_DATA_1 or all CDS_AUDIO, etc.
- Unfortunately, while this is often the case, it is also
- very common for CDs to have some tracks with data, and some
- tracks with audio. Just because I feel like it, I declare
- the following to be the best way to cope. If the CD has
- ANY data tracks on it, it will be returned as a data CD.
- If it has any XA tracks, I will return it as that. Now I
- could simplify this interface by combining these returns with
- the above, but this more clearly demonstrates the problem
- with the current interface. Too bad this wasn't designed
- to use bitmasks... -Erik
-
- Well, now we have the option CDS_MIXED: a mixed-type CD.
- User level programmers might feel the ioctl is not very
- useful.

+Summary of `HDIO_` ioctl calls
+==============================
+
+- Edward A. Falk <efalk@google.com>
+
+November, 2004
+
+This document attempts to describe the ioctl(2) calls supported by
+the HD/IDE layer. These are by-and-large implemented (as of Linux 2.6)
+in drivers/ide/ide.c and drivers/block/scsi_ioctl.c
+
+ioctl values are listed in <linux/hdreg.h>. As of this writing, they
+are as follows:
+
+ ioctls that pass argument pointers to user space:
+
+ ======================= =======================================
+ HDIO_GETGEO get device geometry
+ HDIO_GET_UNMASKINTR get current unmask setting
+ HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT get current IDE blockmode setting
+ HDIO_GET_QDMA get use-qdma flag
+ HDIO_SET_XFER set transfer rate via proc
+ HDIO_OBSOLETE_IDENTITY OBSOLETE, DO NOT USE
+ HDIO_GET_KEEPSETTINGS get keep-settings-on-reset flag

+ HDIO_TRISTATE_HWIF execute a channel tristate
+ HDIO_DRIVE_RESET execute a device reset
+ HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE execute raw taskfile
+ HDIO_DRIVE_TASK execute task and special drive command
+ HDIO_DRIVE_CMD execute a special drive command
+ HDIO_DRIVE_CMD_AEB HDIO_DRIVE_TASK
+ ======================= =======================================
+
+ ioctls that pass non-pointer values:
+
+ ======================= =======================================
+ HDIO_SET_MULTCOUNT change IDE blockmode
+ HDIO_SET_UNMASKINTR permit other irqs during I/O
+ HDIO_SET_KEEPSETTINGS keep ioctl settings on reset
+ HDIO_SET_32BIT change io_32bit flags
+ HDIO_SET_NOWERR change ignore-write-error flag
+ HDIO_SET_DMA change use-dma flag
+ HDIO_SET_PIO_MODE reconfig interface to new speed
+ HDIO_SCAN_HWIF register and (re)scan interface
+ HDIO_SET_NICE set nice flags

+
+ HDIO_SET_IDE_SCSI Set scsi emulation mode on/off
+ HDIO_SET_SCSI_IDE not implemented yet
+ ======================= =======================================
+
+
+The information that follows was determined from reading kernel source
+code. It is likely that some corrections will be made over time.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+General:
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
+ and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error.
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
+ errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
+ address space.
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
+ are defined in <linux/hdreg.h>
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+HDIO_GETGEO
+ get device geometry
+
+
+ usage::
+
+ struct hd_geometry geom;
+
+ ioctl(fd, HDIO_GETGEO, &geom);
+
+
+ inputs:
+ none
+
+
+
+ outputs:
+ hd_geometry structure containing:
+
+
+ ========= ==================================
+ heads number of heads
+ sectors number of sectors/track
+ cylinders number of cylinders, mod 65536
+ start starting sector of this partition.
+ ========= ==================================
+
+
+ error returns:
+ - EINVAL
+
+ if the device is not a disk drive or floppy drive,
+ or if the user passes a null pointer
+
+
+ notes:
+ Not particularly useful with modern disk drives, whose geometry
+ is a polite fiction anyway. Modern drives are addressed
+ purely by sector number nowadays (lba addressing), and the
+ drive geometry is an abstraction which is actually subject
+ to change. Currently (as of Nov 2004), the geometry values
+ are the "bios" values -- presumably the values the drive had
+ when Linux first booted.
+
+ In addition, the cylinders field of the hd_geometry is an
+ unsigned short, meaning that on most architectures, this
+ ioctl will not return a meaningful value on drives with more
+ than 65535 tracks.
+
+ The start field is unsigned long, meaning that it will not
+ contain a meaningful value for disks over 219 Gb in size.
+
+
+
+

+ get current unmask setting
+
+
+ usage::

+
+ notes:
+ Source code comments read::
+
+ This is tightly woven into the driver->do_special cannot
+ touch. DON'T do it again until a total personality rewrite
+ is committed.
+
+ If blockmode has already been set, this ioctl will fail with
+ -EBUSY

+ io_ports[] values returned in the taskfile registers
+ hob_ports[] high-order bytes, for extended commands.
+ out_flags flags indicating which registers are valid (see [2])
+ in_flags flags indicating which registers should be returned

+ - ENOMSG Device is not a disk drive.
+ - ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory for task
+ - EFAULT req_cmd == TASKFILE_IN_OUT (not implemented as of 2.6.8)
+ - EPERM
+
+ req_cmd == TASKFILE_MULTI_OUT and drive
+ multi-count not yet set.
+ - EIO Drive failed the command.
+
+ notes:
+
+ [1] READ THE FOLLOWING NOTES *CAREFULLY*. THIS IOCTL IS
+ FULL OF GOTCHAS. Extreme caution should be used with using
+ this ioctl. A mistake can easily corrupt data or hang the
+ system.
+
+ [2] Both the input and output buffers are copied from the
+ user and written back to the user, even when not used.
+
+ [3] If one or more bits are set in out_flags and in_flags is
+ zero, the following values are used for in_flags.all and
+ written back into in_flags on completion.
+
+ * IDE_TASKFILE_STD_IN_FLAGS | (IDE_HOB_STD_IN_FLAGS << 8)
+ if LBA48 addressing is enabled for the drive
+ * IDE_TASKFILE_STD_IN_FLAGS
+ if CHS/LBA28
+
+ The association between in_flags.all and each enable
+ bitfield flips depending on endianness; fortunately, TASKFILE
+ only uses inflags.b.data bit and ignores all other bits.
+ The end result is that, on any endian machines, it has no
+ effect other than modifying in_flags on completion.
+
+ [4] The default value of SELECT is (0xa0|DEV_bit|LBA_bit)
+ except for four drives per port chipsets. For four drives
+ per port chipsets, it's (0xa0|DEV_bit|LBA_bit) for the first
+ pair and (0x80|DEV_bit|LBA_bit) for the second pair.
+
+ [5] The argument to the ioctl is a pointer to a region of
+ memory containing a ide_task_request_t structure, followed
+ by an optional buffer of data to be transmitted to the
+ drive, followed by an optional buffer to receive data from
+ the drive.
+
+ Command is passed to the disk drive via the ide_task_request_t
+ structure, which contains these fields:
+
+ ============ ===============================================
+ io_ports[8] values for the taskfile registers
+ hob_ports[8] high-order bytes, for extended commands
+ out_flags flags indicating which entries in the
+ io_ports[] and hob_ports[] arrays
+ contain valid values. Type ide_reg_valid_t.
+ in_flags flags indicating which entries in the
+ io_ports[] and hob_ports[] arrays
+ are expected to contain valid values
+ on return.
+ data_phase See below
+ req_cmd Command type, see below
+ out_size output (user->drive) buffer size, bytes
+ in_size input (drive->user) buffer size, bytes
+ ============ ===============================================
+
+ When out_flags is zero, the following registers are loaded.
+
+ ============ ===============================================
+ HOB_FEATURE If the drive supports LBA48
+ HOB_NSECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
+ HOB_SECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
+ HOB_LCYL If the drive supports LBA48

+ FEATURE
+ NSECTOR

+ SELECT First, masked with 0xE0 if LBA48, 0xEF
+ otherwise; then, or'ed with the default
+ value of SELECT.
+ ============ ===============================================
+
+ If any bit in out_flags is set, the following registers are loaded.
+
+ ============ ===============================================
+ HOB_DATA If out_flags.b.data is set. HOB_DATA will
+ travel on DD8-DD15 on little endian machines
+ and on DD0-DD7 on big endian machines.
+ DATA If out_flags.b.data is set. DATA will
+ travel on DD0-DD7 on little endian machines
+ and on DD8-DD15 on big endian machines.
+ HOB_NSECTOR If out_flags.b.nsector_hob is set
+ HOB_SECTOR If out_flags.b.sector_hob is set
+ HOB_LCYL If out_flags.b.lcyl_hob is set
+ HOB_HCYL If out_flags.b.hcyl_hob is set
+ FEATURE If out_flags.b.feature is set
+ NSECTOR If out_flags.b.nsector is set
+ SECTOR If out_flags.b.sector is set
+ LCYL If out_flags.b.lcyl is set
+ HCYL If out_flags.b.hcyl is set
+ SELECT Or'ed with the default value of SELECT and
+ loaded regardless of out_flags.b.select.
+ ============ ===============================================
+
+ Taskfile registers are read back from the drive into
+ {io|hob}_ports[] after the command completes iff one of the
+ following conditions is met; otherwise, the original values
+ will be written back, unchanged.
+
+ 1. The drive fails the command (EIO).
+ 2. One or more than one bits are set in out_flags.
+ 3. The requested data_phase is TASKFILE_NO_DATA.
+
+ ============ ===============================================
+ HOB_DATA If in_flags.b.data is set. It will contain
+ DD8-DD15 on little endian machines and
+ DD0-DD7 on big endian machines.
+ DATA If in_flags.b.data is set. It will contain
+ DD0-DD7 on little endian machines and
+ DD8-DD15 on big endian machines.
+ HOB_FEATURE If the drive supports LBA48
+ HOB_NSECTOR If the drive supports LBA48

+
+
+HDIO_DRIVE_CMD
+ execute a special drive command
+
+
+ Note: If you don't have a copy of the ANSI ATA specification
+ handy, you should probably ignore this ioctl.

+ - ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory for task
+ - EIO Drive reports error
+
+ notes:
+
+ [1] For commands other than WIN_SMART, args[1] should equal
+ args[3]. SECTOR, LCYL and HCYL are undefined. For
+ WIN_SMART, 0x4f and 0xc2 are loaded into LCYL and HCYL
+ respectively. In both cases SELECT will contain the default
+ value for the drive. Please refer to HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE
+ notes for the default value of SELECT.
+
+ [2] If NSECTOR value is greater than zero and the drive sets
+ DRQ when interrupting for the command, NSECTOR * 512 bytes
+ are read from the device into the area following NSECTOR.
+ In the above example, the area would be

- Summary of HDIO_ ioctl calls.
- ============================
-
- Edward A. Falk <efalk@google.com>
-
- November, 2004
-
-This document attempts to describe the ioctl(2) calls supported by
-the HD/IDE layer. These are by-and-large implemented (as of Linux 2.6)
-in drivers/ide/ide.c and drivers/block/scsi_ioctl.c
-
-ioctl values are listed in <linux/hdreg.h>. As of this writing, they
-are as follows:
-
- ioctls that pass argument pointers to user space:
-
- HDIO_GETGEO get device geometry
- HDIO_GET_UNMASKINTR get current unmask setting
- HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT get current IDE blockmode setting
- HDIO_GET_QDMA get use-qdma flag
- HDIO_SET_XFER set transfer rate via proc
- HDIO_OBSOLETE_IDENTITY OBSOLETE, DO NOT USE
- HDIO_GET_KEEPSETTINGS get keep-settings-on-reset flag
- HDIO_GET_32BIT get current io_32bit setting
- HDIO_GET_NOWERR get ignore-write-error flag
- HDIO_GET_DMA get use-dma flag
- HDIO_GET_NICE get nice flags
- HDIO_GET_IDENTITY get IDE identification info
- HDIO_GET_WCACHE get write cache mode on|off

- HDIO_GET_ADDRESS get sector addressing mode
- HDIO_GET_BUSSTATE get the bus state of the hwif
- HDIO_TRISTATE_HWIF execute a channel tristate
- HDIO_DRIVE_RESET execute a device reset
- HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE execute raw taskfile
- HDIO_DRIVE_TASK execute task and special drive command
- HDIO_DRIVE_CMD execute a special drive command
- HDIO_DRIVE_CMD_AEB HDIO_DRIVE_TASK
-
- ioctls that pass non-pointer values:
-
- HDIO_SET_MULTCOUNT change IDE blockmode
- HDIO_SET_UNMASKINTR permit other irqs during I/O
- HDIO_SET_KEEPSETTINGS keep ioctl settings on reset
- HDIO_SET_32BIT change io_32bit flags

-
- HDIO_SET_IDE_SCSI Set scsi emulation mode on/off
- HDIO_SET_SCSI_IDE not implemented yet
-
-
-The information that follows was determined from reading kernel source
-code. It is likely that some corrections will be made over time.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-General:
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return 0 on success
- and -1 with errno set to an appropriate value on error.
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all ioctl calls return -1 and set
- errno to EFAULT on a failed attempt to copy data to or from user
- address space.
-
- Unless otherwise specified, all data structures and constants
- are defined in <linux/hdreg.h>
-
-
-
-HDIO_GETGEO get device geometry
-
- usage:
-
- struct hd_geometry geom;
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_GETGEO, &geom);
-
-
- inputs: none
-
- outputs:
-
- hd_geometry structure containing:
-
- heads number of heads
- sectors number of sectors/track
- cylinders number of cylinders, mod 65536
- start starting sector of this partition.
-
-
- error returns:
- EINVAL if the device is not a disk drive or floppy drive,
- or if the user passes a null pointer
-
-
- notes:
-
- Not particularly useful with modern disk drives, whose geometry
- is a polite fiction anyway. Modern drives are addressed
- purely by sector number nowadays (lba addressing), and the
- drive geometry is an abstraction which is actually subject
- to change. Currently (as of Nov 2004), the geometry values
- are the "bios" values -- presumably the values the drive had
- when Linux first booted.
-
- In addition, the cylinders field of the hd_geometry is an
- unsigned short, meaning that on most architectures, this
- ioctl will not return a meaningful value on drives with more
- than 65535 tracks.
-
- The start field is unsigned long, meaning that it will not
- contain a meaningful value for disks over 219 Gb in size.
-
-
-
-
-HDIO_GET_UNMASKINTR get current unmask setting
-
- usage:
-
- long val;
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_GET_UNMASKINTR, &val);

-
-
-
-HDIO_SET_UNMASKINTR permit other irqs during I/O
-
- usage:
-
- unsigned long val;
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_SET_UNMASKINTR, val);
-
- inputs:
- New value for unmask flag
-
- outputs: none
-
- error return:
- EINVAL (bdev != bdev->bd_contains) (not sure what this means)
- EACCES Access denied: requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN
- EINVAL value out of range [0 1]
- EBUSY Controller busy
-
-
-
-
-HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT get current IDE blockmode setting
-
- usage:
-
- long val;
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT, &val);
-
- inputs: none
-
- outputs:
- The value of the current IDE block mode setting. This
- controls how many sectors the drive will transfer per
- interrupt.
-
-
-
-HDIO_SET_MULTCOUNT change IDE blockmode
-
- usage:
-
- int val;
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_SET_MULTCOUNT, val);
-
- inputs:
- New value for IDE block mode setting. This controls how many
- sectors the drive will transfer per interrupt.
-
- outputs: none
-
- error return:
- EINVAL (bdev != bdev->bd_contains) (not sure what this means)
- EACCES Access denied: requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN
- EINVAL value out of range supported by disk.
- EBUSY Controller busy or blockmode already set.
- EIO Drive did not accept new block mode.
-
- notes:
-
- Source code comments read:
-
- This is tightly woven into the driver->do_special cannot
- touch. DON'T do it again until a total personality rewrite
- is committed.
-
- If blockmode has already been set, this ioctl will fail with
- EBUSY
-

- the ATA specification.
-
- error returns:
- EINVAL (bdev != bdev->bd_contains) (not sure what this means)
- ENOMSG IDENTIFY DEVICE information not available
-
- notes:
-
- Returns information that was obtained when the drive was
- probed. Some of this information is subject to change, and
- this ioctl does not re-probe the drive to update the
- information.

- [1] READ THE FOLLOWING NOTES *CAREFULLY*. THIS IOCTL IS
- FULL OF GOTCHAS. Extreme caution should be used with using
- this ioctl. A mistake can easily corrupt data or hang the
- system.
-
- [2] Both the input and output buffers are copied from the
- user and written back to the user, even when not used.
-
- [3] If one or more bits are set in out_flags and in_flags is
- zero, the following values are used for in_flags.all and
- written back into in_flags on completion.
-
- * IDE_TASKFILE_STD_IN_FLAGS | (IDE_HOB_STD_IN_FLAGS << 8)
- if LBA48 addressing is enabled for the drive
- * IDE_TASKFILE_STD_IN_FLAGS
- if CHS/LBA28
-
- The association between in_flags.all and each enable
- bitfield flips depending on endianness; fortunately, TASKFILE
- only uses inflags.b.data bit and ignores all other bits.
- The end result is that, on any endian machines, it has no
- effect other than modifying in_flags on completion.
-
- [4] The default value of SELECT is (0xa0|DEV_bit|LBA_bit)
- except for four drives per port chipsets. For four drives
- per port chipsets, it's (0xa0|DEV_bit|LBA_bit) for the first
- pair and (0x80|DEV_bit|LBA_bit) for the second pair.
-
- [5] The argument to the ioctl is a pointer to a region of
- memory containing a ide_task_request_t structure, followed
- by an optional buffer of data to be transmitted to the
- drive, followed by an optional buffer to receive data from
- the drive.
-
- Command is passed to the disk drive via the ide_task_request_t
- structure, which contains these fields:
-
- io_ports[8] values for the taskfile registers
- hob_ports[8] high-order bytes, for extended commands
- out_flags flags indicating which entries in the
- io_ports[] and hob_ports[] arrays
- contain valid values. Type ide_reg_valid_t.
- in_flags flags indicating which entries in the
- io_ports[] and hob_ports[] arrays
- are expected to contain valid values
- on return.
- data_phase See below
- req_cmd Command type, see below
- out_size output (user->drive) buffer size, bytes
- in_size input (drive->user) buffer size, bytes
-
- When out_flags is zero, the following registers are loaded.
-
- HOB_FEATURE If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_NSECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_SECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_LCYL If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_HCYL If the drive supports LBA48
- FEATURE
- NSECTOR
- SECTOR
- LCYL
- HCYL
- SELECT First, masked with 0xE0 if LBA48, 0xEF
- otherwise; then, or'ed with the default
- value of SELECT.
-
- If any bit in out_flags is set, the following registers are loaded.
-
- HOB_DATA If out_flags.b.data is set. HOB_DATA will
- travel on DD8-DD15 on little endian machines
- and on DD0-DD7 on big endian machines.
- DATA If out_flags.b.data is set. DATA will
- travel on DD0-DD7 on little endian machines
- and on DD8-DD15 on big endian machines.
- HOB_NSECTOR If out_flags.b.nsector_hob is set
- HOB_SECTOR If out_flags.b.sector_hob is set
- HOB_LCYL If out_flags.b.lcyl_hob is set
- HOB_HCYL If out_flags.b.hcyl_hob is set
- FEATURE If out_flags.b.feature is set
- NSECTOR If out_flags.b.nsector is set
- SECTOR If out_flags.b.sector is set
- LCYL If out_flags.b.lcyl is set
- HCYL If out_flags.b.hcyl is set
- SELECT Or'ed with the default value of SELECT and
- loaded regardless of out_flags.b.select.
-
- Taskfile registers are read back from the drive into
- {io|hob}_ports[] after the command completes iff one of the
- following conditions is met; otherwise, the original values
- will be written back, unchanged.
-
- 1. The drive fails the command (EIO).
- 2. One or more than one bits are set in out_flags.
- 3. The requested data_phase is TASKFILE_NO_DATA.
-
- HOB_DATA If in_flags.b.data is set. It will contain
- DD8-DD15 on little endian machines and
- DD0-DD7 on big endian machines.
- DATA If in_flags.b.data is set. It will contain
- DD0-DD7 on little endian machines and
- DD8-DD15 on big endian machines.
- HOB_FEATURE If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_NSECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_SECTOR If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_LCYL If the drive supports LBA48
- HOB_HCYL If the drive supports LBA48
- NSECTOR
- SECTOR
- LCYL
- HCYL
-
- The data_phase field describes the data transfer to be
- performed. Value is one of:
-
- TASKFILE_IN
- TASKFILE_MULTI_IN
- TASKFILE_OUT
- TASKFILE_MULTI_OUT
- TASKFILE_IN_OUT
- TASKFILE_IN_DMA
- TASKFILE_IN_DMAQ == IN_DMA (queueing not supported)
- TASKFILE_OUT_DMA
- TASKFILE_OUT_DMAQ == OUT_DMA (queueing not supported)
- TASKFILE_P_IN unimplemented
- TASKFILE_P_IN_DMA unimplemented
- TASKFILE_P_IN_DMAQ unimplemented
- TASKFILE_P_OUT unimplemented
- TASKFILE_P_OUT_DMA unimplemented
- TASKFILE_P_OUT_DMAQ unimplemented
-
- The req_cmd field classifies the command type. It may be
- one of:
-
- IDE_DRIVE_TASK_NO_DATA
- IDE_DRIVE_TASK_SET_XFER unimplemented
- IDE_DRIVE_TASK_IN
- IDE_DRIVE_TASK_OUT unimplemented
- IDE_DRIVE_TASK_RAW_WRITE
-
- [6] Do not access {in|out}_flags->all except for resetting
- all the bits. Always access individual bit fields. ->all
- value will flip depending on endianness. For the same
- reason, do not use IDE_{TASKFILE|HOB}_STD_{OUT|IN}_FLAGS
- constants defined in hdreg.h.
-
-
-
-HDIO_DRIVE_CMD execute a special drive command
-
- Note: If you don't have a copy of the ANSI ATA specification
- handy, you should probably ignore this ioctl.
-
- usage:
-
- u8 args[4+XFER_SIZE];
- ...
- ioctl(fd, HDIO_DRIVE_CMD, args);
-
- inputs:
-
- Commands other than WIN_SMART
- args[0] COMMAND
- args[1] NSECTOR
- args[2] FEATURE
- args[3] NSECTOR
-
- WIN_SMART
- args[0] COMMAND
- args[1] SECTOR
- args[2] FEATURE
- args[3] NSECTOR
-
- outputs:
-
- args[] buffer is filled with register values followed by any
- data returned by the disk.
- args[0] status
- args[1] error
- args[2] NSECTOR
- args[3] undefined
- args[4+] NSECTOR * 512 bytes of data returned by the command.
-
- error returns:
- EACCES Access denied: requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO
- ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory for task
- EIO Drive reports error
-
- notes:
-
- [1] For commands other than WIN_SMART, args[1] should equal
- args[3]. SECTOR, LCYL and HCYL are undefined. For
- WIN_SMART, 0x4f and 0xc2 are loaded into LCYL and HCYL
- respectively. In both cases SELECT will contain the default
- value for the drive. Please refer to HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE
- notes for the default value of SELECT.
-
- [2] If NSECTOR value is greater than zero and the drive sets
- DRQ when interrupting for the command, NSECTOR * 512 bytes
- are read from the device into the area following NSECTOR.
- In the above example, the area would be
- args[4..4+XFER_SIZE]. 16bit PIO is used regardless of
- HDIO_SET_32BIT setting.
-
- [3] If COMMAND == WIN_SETFEATURES && FEATURE == SETFEATURES_XFER
- && NSECTOR >= XFER_SW_DMA_0 && the drive supports any DMA
- mode, IDE driver will try to tune the transfer mode of the
- drive accordingly.
-
-
-
-HDIO_DRIVE_TASK execute task and special drive command
-
- Note: If you don't have a copy of the ANSI ATA specification
- handy, you should probably ignore this ioctl.

- args[1] FEATURE
- args[2] NSECTOR
- args[3] SECTOR
- args[4] LCYL

- args[6] SELECT
-
- outputs:
-
- Taskfile register values:
- args[0] status
- args[1] error
- args[2] NSECTOR
- args[3] SECTOR
- args[4] LCYL
- args[5] HCYL
- args[6] SELECT
-
- error returns:
- EACCES Access denied: requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO
- ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory for task
- ENOMSG Device is not a disk drive.
- EIO Drive failed the command.
-
- notes:
-
- [1] DEV bit (0x10) of SELECT register is ignored and the
- appropriate value for the drive is used. All other bits
- are used unaltered.

+==============================
+Decoding an IOCTL Magic Number
+==============================
+
+To decode a hex IOCTL code:
+
+Most architectures use this generic format, but check
+include/ARCH/ioctl.h for specifics, e.g. powerpc
+uses 3 bits to encode read/write and 13 bits for size.
+
+ ====== ==================================
+ bits meaning
+ ====== ==================================
+ 31-30 00 - no parameters: uses _IO macro
+ 10 - read: _IOR
+ 01 - write: _IOW
+ 11 - read/write: _IOWR
+
+ 29-16 size of arguments
+
+ 15-8 ascii character supposedly
+ unique to each driver
+
+ 7-0 function #
+ ====== ==================================
+
+
+So for example 0x82187201 is a read with arg length of 0x218,
+character 'r' function 1. Grepping the source reveals this is::
+
+ #define VFAT_IOCTL_READDIR_BOTH _IOR('r', 1, struct dirent [2])
